Commission reviews senior housing proposal

BY THOMAS J. MC KILLEN MANAGING EDITOR The Menomonee Falls Plan Commission expressed support for rezoning and land use changes proposed by Presbyterian Homes & Services March 5. The organization has obtained an option to purchase three parcels of land near the northwest corner of Lisbon and Pilgrim roads. Plans submitted to the village by Presbyterian Homes & Services call for developing a senior housing campus that will include senior apartments, assisted living, memory care and skilled nursing care. According to information submitted to the village, the first phase would involve constructing a 20,000 square foot building that would include a town center that would include a kitchen, dining room, club room, theater room, salon and wellness center. The first phase would also include a four-story wing of 80 apartments and a three-story wing of 54 assisted living and memory care units. The second phase would comprise of two wings that would include 40 senior apartments and 46 units for assisted living. A two-story brownstone building of 24 apartments would also be construct-

Report: Falls near the top in development

Menomonee Falls maintained its position near the top of several development categories, according to the village's 2012 development report. The report was presented to the Village Board March 4. Director of Community Development cited data from the report. According to Carran: The village had a population of 35,680 residents in 2012, making the village the 21st largest community in the state. The village population is projected to increase to more than 41,000 in 2030; Menomonee Falls has an assessed value of $4.28 billion, the ninth largest in the state. The village has the third largest assessed manufacturing real estate value in Wisconsin, having passed the city of Madison in that category while still behind Green Bay. The village issued 608 residential permits and 126 non-residential permits in 2012. Carran noted the permits included additions to existing facilities as well as new structures. Carran said the non-residential permits were down from 2011. "We didn't have the large building that came online to add to the assessed value," Carran said of the non-residential side of development. There were 53 housing starts in the village in 2012, the third largest in

Falls district mulling waiver option for gym classes

Students would have to take core course instead; physical education staff opposed to proposal
BY THOMAS J. MC KILLEN MANAGING EDITOR The Menomonee Falls School District is discussing an option that would allow juniors and seniors at the high school to waive the final semester of physical education if they are competing in a district-sponsored athletic activity. Under the proposal, the final semester would be waived to allow the students to take a core academic course in English, math, social studies, science or health. The proposal would allow the waiver if a junior or senior competed in 95 percent of the practices and competitions of a school sponsored junior varsity or varsity activity. The student will have to submit to their counselor a verification form confirming practices in participation or competitions two weeks after the end of a season. Also, a student must not have been out for two weeks during a season due to injury or illness and not have any violation of the athletic code resulting in a suspension of more than one week or two or more events. Gary Kiltz, director of curriculum and learning, said Act 105 approved by the Legislature in 2011 allows for the waiver. Chad Stigler, a physical education at Riverside Elementary School, spoke against the proposed waiver. It is the position of the Menomonee Falls Physical Education Department that this act is educationally unsound and it creates significant educational inequity and is contrary to the national and state academic standards for physical education, Stigler said. Passing this waiver would result in limiting a students ability to reach their full potential by narrowing their educational exposure to a single sport than a balanced, varied, comprehensive and rigorous physical education program. Stigler added that todays physical education is not the roll out the ball or throw out the ball experience of many years ago. Todays physical education is based upon sound practices of health and skill-related principles of movement. He said the waiver sends a false perception of physical education courses while also sending the message to the community that we have little or no expectation for the students in our classes. Thus, they can be replaced with athletics. It is the position of the physical education department that all students should be required to complete their physical education credits in a knowledge-based academic program. Stigler said the focus of sports, by comparison, is to develop and master a narrow set of skills and to win games. He also noted that many coaches are not either physical education teachers or teachers. Study after study shows that students need more, not less, physical activity to be healthy and academically successful. Act 105 is contrary to what our students need and deserve, Stigler said. Ann Reigstad added that we do not believe that enough data has been collected and studied for this waiver and asked the district to study the matter for a year and examine how it has impacted other districts. In response, Kiltz replied that the athletic event serves as a qualifier for the waiver and the physical education course is waived in favor of a core education course. Kiltz said the waiver calls for coach to verify requirements for attendance. I dont think our coaches are in a position where theyre not going to be able to take attendance and confirm that our students participated in 95 percent of the practices or competitions, Kiltz said. Kiltz also summarized the impact of the waiver as it has been applied in other districts. According to Kiltz, Greenfield has 16 students, Hamilton six students and Westosha Central has 34 students taking the waiver. The item was on the board agenda for discussion only.

Falls HS choir to perform at Carnegie Hall

The Menomonee Falls High School choir will be performing in one the most famous concert halls at the start of April. The choir will be performing at Carnegie Hall in New York City April 1 under the direction of Z. Randall Stroope. High School Choir Director Brian Scheehle said the choir which is a combination of the high school concert choir and master singers will be one of six to seven choirs performing at the concert, which is part of a series of concerts organized by Manhattan Concert Productions. Scheehle explained that the choir was selected for the concert through an audition process that involved sending a recording of a choir performance in March 2012. Scheehle learned in April 2012 that the Falls choir was selected for the concert. At the April 1 concert, Menomonee falls will combine with singers from other schools for a festival chorus of 150 to 200 singers. The Menomonee Falls choir has been rehearsing since January to music that was selected by Stroope to prepare for the concert. In addition to the concert, the Menomonee Falls choirs will also be touring NBC studios, Central Park and SoHo and seeing a Broadway musical. By Thomas J. McKillen, Managing Editor

Hamilton board to support Sussex TIF

The Hamilton School District will support a tax incremental finance (TIF) district proposed in the village of Sussex part of the Mammoth Springs development. The School Board approved a motion at its March 5 meeting indicating support for the TIF. In a TIF, taxes normally directed toward local units of government are instead used to pay for infrastructure improvements. The local units of government later benefit from the increased property value generated by the improvements. Final approval for the creation of a TIF comes from a special board comprised of representatives from all the local taxing districts and a citizen representatives. The village of Sussex sixth TIF district covers an area southwest of Main Street and Waukesha Avenue. The Mammoth Springs Canning Company operated at the site from September 1920 until March 1996. Developer Arthur Sawall is proposing a new development comprised of five multi-family and two commercial buildings with the potential of another multi-family development being added in the future. According to the project plan, the village will obtain land adjacent to the site to allow for the relocation of the Bug Line Trail. Hamilton School Board member Michael Hyland cited other successful TIF-related projects that have occurred within the district boundaries and said if the current plan is as successful "this will be a great addition to downtown Sussex and help grow the valuation of our school district over time." The TIF board will meet March 18 to consider the proposal. By Thomas J. McKillen, Managing Editor

NO HEAT TO THE FEET

For some reason long ago, people started spreading the poor advice to others with foot problems to soak their feet in hot water, with or without some soaking additive. This is definitely WRONG. Never soak your feet in hot water. Even some whirlpools and spas are too hot for safety. Hot water can cause a dilatation of the blood vessels allowing blood clots to move if present. This could result in a stroke or heart attack. Hot water will also cause continued swelling of a foot or ankle resulting in continued pain of the foot, ankle or toes. Usually swelling will respond to cool or cold treatment, but if you are a diabetic or have poor circulation, you should see a Podiatrist before doing anything.

Getting the most out of Social Security

(BPT) - The majority of Americans support continuing the Social Security program, even if they are decades away from drawing benefits, a 2010 survey by AARP found. Nevertheless, with the program's future financial viability an ongoing subject of political debate, many people may undervalue the role Social Security can play in their retirement planning. "For years, financial services companies have downplayed the role of Social Security in bolstering financial security in retirement," writes James Mahaney, vice president of Strategic Initiatives for Prudential, in the white paper "Innovative Strategies to Help Maximize Social Security Benefits." "However, considering the increased financial risks retirees now shoulder, the tax preferences that Social Security receives, and the income options that Social Security now offers, a strong argument can be made that Social Security should play a greater role in a retiree's financial planning." Each day, 10,000 Americans reach retirement age. With people living longer and fewer companies offering pensions, saving for retirement has become even more important for today's workers. Yet, retirement savings rates remain low. Social Security offers "regular income that is guaranteed to increase over time and continue for as long as you live," Mahaney writes. "No other (retirement) vehicle can match the combination of inflation-fighting increases, longevity protection, investment risk elimination, and spousal coverage that Social Security can (offer)." With Social Security accounting for approximately 40 percent of income for the average retiree, according to the Employee Benefit Research Institute, it makes sense to take steps to maximize potential Social Security benefits, Mahaney advises. While most Americans realize they accrue Social Security benefits throughout their careers, many may be unaware that they can influence the amount they will receive upon retirement. Retirees can help maximize their Social Security benefits by avoiding four costly - and common - mistakes: Don't underestimate the real value of Social Security. Don't rush to collect Social Security - and then regret the reduced benefits for the rest of your life. Don't overlook the various ways married couples can integrate their benefits. Don't get blindsided by taxes. Claiming benefits as soon as they're eligible is a common mistake that can cost retirees tens of thousands of dollars over their lifetime. Although most everyone becomes eligible for benefits at age 62, delaying benefits until you reach Full Retirement Age (which varies depending on your birth year) or later may help ensure you receive the maximum amount you qualify for. "Retirees often apply for Social Security benefits early," Mahaney writes. "Most certainly didn't stop to think that ... they could have potentially doubled their initial payments if only they had waited until age 70." Another common mistake is forgetting that when you retire, the income received from IRA withdrawals often causes Social Security benefits to become taxed as well. Since Social Security income is taxed differently than IRA income, you can often reduce your taxes by choosing higher Social Security income and lower IRA withdrawals. It's never too early - or too late - to plan for retirement, experts agree. Talk to your financial advisor about your retirement strategy and how Social Security fits into it. "It's all about choices," Mahaney concludes. "Those who understand how to evaluate their choices and optimize their decisions will be the ones to enjoy a more secure retirement.

...Zoning, land use changes needed for project

From page 1
ed. The third phase would include a onestory addition to the main building which would include the care center and the construction of a second brownstone building with 28 apartments. The total development would include 350 total units, including 72 assisted living units and 28 memory care units. The commission first gave approval to changing the zoning from C-3 Planned Commercial-Residential District and Planned Development District to the P-2 Institutional District. During commission discussion, Village President Randy Newman asked the developer to look at a parking lot on the southwest portion of the site, which he said might get some neighborhood pushback. That would probably be a concern when we get to the public hearing, that the parking lot is going to be right outside their doors, Newman said. Newman suggested the developer look at screening or adjusting the parking to address the potential concerns of residents. The neighborhood I think will like this because theres been a concern of what were been talking about putting on this property, Newman said. A representative from Presbyterian Homes said the development timeline calls for starting the first phase in spring 2014 with the other phases to follow pending on market condition. Trustee Michael McDonald noted the area is the doorstep to the village and the village has rejected other proposed developments at the location. Something like this on that corner would be a marked improvement of what we have previously seen here and would be embraced by the neighbors, McDonald said. He then added if the issues with the southwest parking lot can be addressed, this is a winner. A public hearing will be held before the Village Board for the rezoning. The development will also require that the land use portion of the villages Comprehensive Plan be changed from Commercial and Mixed Use to the Institutional Land Use designation. A public hearing regarding changes to the Comprehensive Land Use Plan will be held at a future Plan Commission meeting.

as a Tree City and Bird City in 2012. The Parade of Homes was held in the village in 2012 and will return this year. In reviewing ongoing projects, Carran cited the ongoing development of a medical practice and fitness club on the location of onetime abandoned industrial property north of Roosevelt Drive and west of Pilgrim Road as a key project that is currently underway. The Wisconsin Athletic Club and Froedtert Health are constructing separate facilities at the site. "We've held out and have been saying for the past 17 years that the area needs to be an image piece for Menomonee Falls along the freeway," Carran said. "This is the start to that. Other ongoing projects include a multitenant building along Appleton Avenue that will include Falls Chiropractic, changes to the Northpoint Shopping Center along Appleton Avenue (which include the move of Pick 'N Save to a nearby building and Big Lots and Jo-Ann Fabrics moving in to existing space), and changes to the Crossroads Shopping Center (which include the move of Pick 'N Save and other tenants to different spaces).

Craicmore performing at Schauer Center

Craicmore, a contemporary traditional celtic quartet, comes to the Schauer Arts & Activities Center on Saturday, March 16 at 7:30 p.m. Four part harmony, rhythmic hardshoe dancing, an East Indian Shruti Box, and rumbling Didjeridoo all accent the warmth of the fiery performance. With roots in the music of Scotland and Ireland, Craicmore features critically acclaimed vocalist Nancy Johnston. The marriage of Johnstons warm vocals with John MacAdams and Sean Faye Cullens churning rhythms and Dave Champagnes sinuous whistles and piping displays their absolute delight in playing. Like the name itself, an easy blend of an Irish word for fun "craic," and "mor," Irish for big, Craicmores music does what great music shouldenrich the tradition. The performance will be preceded by a free SoundBites discussion from 6:30-7 pm, during which members of the group will provide background on the program. Advance reservations recommended to guarantee seating. Tickets to Craicmore are $30 or $26 for adults and $28 or $24 for students. Tickets can be purchased at the Schauer Center Box Office Monday through Friday from 11:30 am to 5:30 pm and Saturday from 11:30 am to 2:00 pm at 147 N. Rural Street in Hartford, charge by phone at 262-670-0560, ext. 3 or online at SchauerCenter.org.

Falls district facing $2.4 million as result of state budget proposal

Zero percent increase in per pupil cost
The School District of Menomonee Falls will have to cover a projected $2.4 million budget gap as a result of Gov. Scott Walkers budget proposal, district officials indicated at the Feb. 25 School Board meeting. Walker introduced his budget plans earlier in the month. Superintendent Patricia Greco explained that in starting to develop the budget, the district developed three projections, including one with a state budget that will have no increase in cost per pupil state aid to local school districts. What is being advanced is a zero percent increase between $2.4 million and $2.6 million in reductions for the coming year, Greco told the board. She said that budget goals highlight the lens in how decisions will be made. Greco said that any area of programming is going to represent a lot of passion. Passion by the staff, passion by the families. She said the first goal of the budget is to prioritize strategies to use improve academic achievement, staff performance with new evaluation criteria and continued improvement in all areas. Greco said the district will prioritize trying to sustain appropriate class ratios including conversations about expected number of class sections and programming to ensure that students make successful college and career transitions. We know there are going to be program reductions. We know we have to advance to the board recommendations of programs that were going to reduce in the coming budget, Greco said. Were using this criteria as the lens of which ones have a higher set of priorities. Greco mentioned points of pride that the district will continue to highlight. Recent accomplishments included all district schools scoring above state performance expectations, the Red Quill award the high school received from the ACT testing service, strong technology access, and strong fiscal management that includes a double-A bond rating from Moodys Investors Service. Its very sobering when youre going through these next couple of months. Its not fun for the board, its certainly not fun for the leadership team. And all of it represents passion on behalf of the community that we service, Greco said. A budget workshop was held by the board March 6. By Thomas J. McKillen, Managing Editor

Warhkawks top Redbirds in sectional final

BY TROY SPARKS CORRESPONDENT Mequon Bonding as a team last summer took Germantown on a journey from summer league champions to a conference title and now sectional champions. The Warhawks punched their ticket to the Division 1 state tournament in Madison with a hard-fought 73-59 win over De Pere, Mar. 2, in the Homestead sectional final. "Chemistry has come a long way," senior center Luke Fischer said, "as we hung with each other and all those open gyms in the summertime have paid off." With Herculean efforts from Fischer (19 points) and junior guard Lamonte Bearden, who led all scorers with 22, Germantown advanced to their fourth trip to state in beating the Redbirds for the second straight year. The Warhawks (26-0) are two wins away from repeating as state champs. Their winning streak now stands at 54. De Pere played another physical game against Germantown and the Warhawks were ready for the challenge. "We knew that they wanted to push us around, and we were ready for it," Fischer said. Even though Fischer had a 6-inch advantage over the tallest De Pere starter, he had to work for every one of his points. "They did the best job that I have ever been guarded by any team out there." This was a big game for Lamonte Bearden in his high school career so far, and his focus was on helping the Warhawks live up to their No. 1 state ranking while playing with a target on their backs all season. "The night before (I was thinking) that I knew we had to come out here and play hard," he said. "I knew De Pere was going to come out here and put up a fight. We kept our intensity going and we came out with the W." After Bearden scored four of Germantowns first six points to start the game on a 6-0 run, De Pere coach Brian Winchester called a timeout at the 6 minute 26 second mark of the first quarter to regroup. After finding themselves down 177, the Redbirds went on a 7-0 run to close the gap to 17-14 late in the quarter and trailed 19-14 entering the second quarter. Brevin Pritzls four points helped De Pere open the second quarter with a 6-1 run to tie the game at 20, but two free-throws by junior guard Jake Showalter gave Germantown the lead for good at 22-20 with 6:25 left in the first half. That was part of an 8-0 Germantown run to stretch their lead to 2820. De Pere, who never led in the game, faced an uphill battle and a 38-28 halftime deficit. The Redbirds (22-4) kept the pressure on the Warhawks late in the third quarter with back-to-back three-pointers by senior Spencer Mocarski and junior Mitch Winter to cut the Germantown lead down to 49-45. A big three by junior Evan Wesenberg and much-needed scoring from Fischer and Lamonte Bearden helped the Warhawks close out the third quarter with a 60-47 advantage. Wesenberg finished with 11 points. With the exception of Wesenbergs basket, Germantowns 11 points in the final quarter came from either Lamonte or Brian Bearden. The pressure finally wore De Pere down and the Germantown team breathed a sigh of relief and so did their fans. "We just kept on going," Fischer said. "We didnt get tired at all. We just kept pushing and kept going." Lamonte Bearden elevated his game on the biggest stage while drowning out the cheers of "Transfer" from the De Pere crowd and making five of

six free-throws down the stretch. The one-two punch of nationally-ranked Germantown didnt disappoint and were the keys to the team that needed its own identity with only three seniors. "(Luke) is good," Lamonte Bearden said. "Hes super good. Its easy to get him the ball." Said Fischer of Bearden: "Hes a great player. Its crazy. I love how he came here and helped us out so much." The Bearden brothers, who transferred into Germantown, are making their first trip to state and are the second group of brothers to go to Madison since Zak and Jake Showalter in 2012. "It feels good," Brian Bearden, who chipped in 12 points, said. "Im just glad that I can be in this position with a good thing like this."

Girls basketball: Hamilton loses to Arrowhead in regional final

BY TROY SPARKS CORRESPONDENT Sussex Arrowhead played catch-up with Sussex Hamilton in their regional final game at Hamilton all night until an unfortunate injury turned the game around for them and crushed the hopes of the Chargers, as Arrowhead won 46-40, March 2. With 3 minutes 13 seconds remaining in regulation, Hamilton junior forward Mackenzie Latt tried to stop a layup attempt by Arrowhead senior Vanessa Voss, who was fouled. She fell awkwardly on the floor and injured her right knee. Latt needed some assistance to the sideline. She was forced to watch from the bench with her leg propped on a chair. The Warhawks took advantage of the opportunity with Latt out and leading 36-35 after Voss made the second of her two freethrows. It was the first time that Arrowhead led in the game. They closed out the scoring on a 10-5 run. "(The run) was pretty big because we needed it," Voss said. "We wanted the momentum to swing our way. I think when we switched into our full court (defense), that pretty much gave us some steals." The momentum for Arrowhead (16-8) built up in the fourth quarter when they trailed 29-22. Free-throws by Voss, a basket by junior Kelly Smith and a huge 4-point play by senior Tori Miller was part of an 80 run that cut the Hamilton lead to 33-32. Before Latts injury, the 35-35 score was the last of three tie contests. "It was a shame that (Latt) went down the way that she did," Arrowhead coach Rick Witte said. An MRI later determined that Latt did not suffer any ligament damage. Hamilton (21-3) scored the first six points of the game before Arrowhead came back and scored the last six points of the first quarter to trail 10-9. A three by Arrowhead senior Maggie Doleschy tied the score at 12-12, the first of the game. Baskets by Latt and Arrowhead sophomore Ally May tied the game for the second time at 14-all. Hamilton regained the lead and took a 20-17 advantage into the locker room. Arrowhead watched Hamilton go on a 9-2 run in the third quarter to trail 29-19. It was until they switched defenses to rattle the Chargers by forcing turnovers and scoring just enough to keep within striking distance of Hamilton. "We were sitting in that zone," Witte said. "We figured that if we dont turn defense into offense, we would watch this game slip away. So we put that diamond full-court trap (defense) on them. We just werent going to sit back and let this happen." That shift in defensive strategy by Arrowhead led to 13 second half turnovers by Hamilton and 21 in the game. "We kind of lost our composure a little bit there," an emotional Hamilton coach Dan Carey said. "(It was a) credit for them. They converted and capitalized (on our mistakes)." All that was left after the Latt injury was an encouraging finish by the Chargers. The Arrowhead team showed good sportsmanship by walking over to Latt and shaking her hand and offering encouragement along the way. "I told (the team) I was proud of them," Carey said. "They were the most special group that I ever coached. And I dont want it to end, but . . . And I love them." Latt scored 11 points in the game. March 1: Hamilton tops Hartford Hamilton took care of business against visiting Hartford in a 58-36 win at home March 1. Hamilton (21-2) established control by going to junior forward Latt early in the game. She scored the first two baskets and had eight of Hamiltons 13 first quarter points. The Chargers turned up the intensity with two huge runs that gave them the breathing room they needed. An early 5-0 run was followed by another 13-0 run. Freshman guard Taylor Klug made three straight three-point shots. Her first three gave the Chargers a double digit lead at 25-15. Hartford junior guard Sara Beines three at the 2 minute 12 second mark in the second quarter ended a 13-3 run by Hamilton. The Chargers led at the half 3921. Latt had 18 first half points. Hamilton shot 57 percent from the field (16-for-28) to Hartfords 44 percent (8-for-18). "Mackenzie got us rolling," Carey said. "Taylor Klug hitting those three threes was huge. It kind of got the lid off (the basket) a little bit. A good start is always a good thing." The Orioles (10-14) didnt have the size to put up a fight against the Chargers or stop Latt. And it showed when they could only muster four points in the third quarter and looked defenseless as Hamilton took a 50-27 advantage into the final period of regulation. Only in the fourth when the Hamilton lead was safe did Carey take out Latt and Klug. Latt led all scorers with 24 points. The Chargers were 25-46 from the field (54 percent) and the Orioles shot 31 percent (13-for-42). Hamilton committed 15 turnovers "That first playoff jitters are always there for everybody," Carey said. "I think that everybody has to battle that the first couple minutes of the game. Once we settled in, we were good."

Girls basketball regional final

Warhawks unable to overcome fast start by West

The Germantown girls basketball team overcame a slow start but it couldn't answer a strong finish by Waukesha West March 2, losing to the hosts in the regional final, 73-54. The Wolverines scored eight straight points in the first quarter and held a 13-4 lead after a layup by Dani Rhodes at the 3:54 mark. Germantown spent the rest of the half catching up, and a three-point basket by Courtney Mehring with one minute left before halftime tied the score at 28-28. But Rhodes converted a free throw before halftime and the Wolverines opened the third quarter with an 8-1 run. "Usually it's been our strong point to take to teams right away but it seemed like we started the game a little tentative on both ends," Germantown Coach Matt Stuve said afterward. "They took advantage of that and It's hard to fight back against good teams like that." West opened up a 46-33 lead after a basket by Lizzy Connors. The Warhawks again rallied and held the Wolverine lead under double-digits. But a three-point basket by Rhodes at the 5:07 mark gave West a 5647 lead started a 10-2 run that put the game out of reach for the Warhawks, as West settled into a halfcourt, extended possession game. Stuve also lamented that Germantown wasn't able to convert layups and other close range opportunities throughout the contest. In addition, Germantown only converted 21 of 37 free throw opportunities. "We didn't do the little things that made us successful on a consistent basis," Stuve said. Germantown ends the season with an 186 record. The season included a third place finish in the North Shore Conference and the implementation of a new offensive system that put an emphasis on keeping the game fastpaced while opening up more possessions. Germantown opened the postseason with a 63-43 win over Waukesha South March 1. Miska Cantley led Germantown with 12 points. Menomonee Falls loses in playoff opener Menomonee Falls lost in the regional final at Arrowhead March 1, 57-50.
